Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal’s wedding kicks off with a baraat

This wedding is going to be one for the archives

Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal have been the topic of much excitement since they made their relationship public earlier this year. After Piramal popped the question in Mahabaleshwar this May, the couple celebrated their engagement with a stunning engagement ceremony at Lake Como in September, and today marks the day that Isha Ambani and fiancé Anand Piramal will finally tie the knot in Mumbai.

In case you missed it, the Ambani and Piramal families kickstarted Isha and Anand’s wedding celebrations last week with a lavish getaway in Udaipur that was attended by everyone including Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh, Ranbir Kapoor, Jacqueline Fernandez and Karisma Kapoor, along with note-worthy international personalities like Hillary Clinton, Nick Jonas and music mogul Beyoncé. How does one top that? With a wedding that’s regal enough to take over the internet, of course. Here’s a peek at Isha Ambani’s wedding decor.

Antilia transforms into a garden of blooms for Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal’s wedding

Released just minutes ago, the latest pictures from Antilia, the Ambanis’ Mumbai residence, shows Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal’s guests walking into a gate decorated with thousands of fresh blooms. Looking at the impeccable work, it’s hard to believe that Antilia’s wedding decoration was completed within one night. While the driveway of the building has been filled with full-blown red roses and metallic gold trees, the sides of the entrance doors have been decked out with ivory and gold domes decorated with diyas. The road leading up to Antilia, Mumbai’s Altamount Road has also been decorated with rows and rows of bold yellow and orange marigold flowers.

Isha Ambani’s brothers begin a baraat for the wedding

Though the baraat (a procession of dancing wedding guests) usually comes with the groom at Hindu weddings, Isha Ambani’s wedding today has begun with an in-house baraat. While brothers Akash Ambani and Anant Ambani were seen sitting atop horses at the entrance of Antilia, a parade outside the residence also featured women dressed as mermaids to add a whimsical touch to Isha Ambani’s wedding day.

Greeting the guests, Akash Ambani’s bride-to-be Shloka Mehta was seen in a gold lehenga and emerald jewellery, and Radhika Merchant followed the same palette with her wedding outfit. Among the few guests who have already started pouring in were Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan, joined by daughter Shweta Bachchan Nanda and grand daughter Navya Naveli Nanda. Want more updates? Rumour has it that the bride will be wearing an Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla creation tonight. Scroll to see all the pictures from Isha Ambani and Akash Piramal’s wedding day.
